Motherhood & The Brain
Let Go Of How Things 'Should' Be In Motherhood
In this episode, I invite you to pause and reflect on your actions and intentions, questioning the status quo and aligning with your family's values and needs.
Let's start by unpacking the societal and personal pressures shaping our approaches to motherhood. Why do we parent the way we do? Through introspection, we can discover more satisfying and authentic parenting styles, breaking free from tradition to find what truly works for our unique families.
Crafting your path in motherhood involves reflecting on personal and family values, strengths, and quirks. I encourage you to question norms, set boundaries, seek help, and explore new mothering methods. Empowerment comes from tailored approaches and personal reflection.
Reflecting on my own childhood, family dinners were pivotal bonding times. I wanted to continue this tradition, but modern schedules and needs posed challenges. Many of us struggle with balancing tradition and reality, facing internal conflicts and pressure.
Through personal reflection and coaching, I've found alternative opportunities for family bonding. Connection can thrive outside traditional settings, challenging narrow definitions of family time.
Embracing flexibility led to deeper, authentic connections with my children. Quality interactions trump formal settings. Even car rides to activities became unexpected bonding moments and avenues for deep conversation.
I encourage mothers, especially working moms, to find unique moments of connection beyond societal norms. Meaningful bonding transcends traditional frameworks like meal times. Avoid comparisons and embrace what works for your family.
Do you lie in bed awake at night, secretly worry that the yelling and criticism are hurting your kids; and want a safe place to change that without shame?
